Safety razor/ double edge razors are universal. There are numerous brands that will will fit numerous blades. Make sure to stop by newbie check in, there is a lot of good information there as well.

Hmm... Any safety razor blade will fit any modern safety razor, that's why they have that stamped cut out in the middle...

Derbys and only Derbys. Any other blade may look like it fits, but are actually microscopically crooked in the head. In addition, they may cause sterility in the user - especially Feathers.

Any modern blade fits any modern and the majority of vintage safety razors. Like other say drop by the newbie check in and / or blade reviews.

Yep. Only the Derby blades will fit in correctly

That's funny because Derby's won't fit into any of my razors. They keep getting stuck in my blade bank on the way to the razor head.

If only Derby's blades fit into a Merkur, I would only shave with Gillettes. The same goes for Merkur blades.

OP: Proprietary blades would need to be sought out. DE blades have been standardized for quite some time. No need to worry about blades fitting into differing manufacturer's razors. You only need to worry about finding a blade that works for you.
